In the vast expense of a timeless place
where silence ruled the outer space
Ominously towering it stood;
the symbol of a spirit war
between the one named Lucifer
and the Morning Star, The Ultimate of Good.
Enveloped by a trillion planets
clean as lightning, and as hard as granite
a comic coliseum would host the end
of the war between the Lord of Sin and Death
and the Omnipotent Creator of man's first breath
who will decide forever -
who would be the champion.
The audience for the fight of the ages
was assembled and in place;
The angels came in splendor from a star

as majestically He said, "Now, here's the rules.
He'll be wounded for their transgressions, bruised for inequities."
When He said, "By His stripes they're healed."
The devil was shocked and said, "Sickness is my specialty I hate that healing junk."
God said, "You shut your mouth - I wrote the Book"
Then the Father looked at His Only Son, and said, " You know the titles, your blood will cleanse their sins and calm their fears."
Then He pointed His finger at Satan, and said, "And I know you know the rules, you've been twisting them to deceive my people for years."
Satan cried, "I'll kill you Christ, you'll never win this fight."
The demons wheezed, "That's right, there
